Hearing Sabrina shoot the question back at him, Nigel was stunned too. "It’s... I was not you? Then was it my cousin? But I don't think my cousin would do something like this. Even if he wanted to transfer a million dollars to Minerva, he would ask Kingston to send the money directly to her, or give it to me."
Sabrina:
She was sure Sebastian did not transfer the money to Minerva. Suddenly, she remembered Holden telling her more than an hour ago when he left that he was going to visit his niece. Back then, Sabrina thought he was referring to Aino. Now she understood. Holden’s family name was Payne. So was Minerva’s. Minerva was Harry Payne’s daughter; then, that meant she was Holden's niece, right?
She said to Nigel over the phone, "It’s not your cousin o r me either. I think... I know who it is."
On the other end, Nigel was quiet for a long time before asking, "Is it... Holden Payne?"
Sabrina:
Nigel answered, "Rumors are flying that Holden has returned to South City, and he threatened Uncle Sean and Aunt Rose multiple times, causing trouble in the city. Every time after he was done, he would warn Uncle Sean and Aunt Rose not to harm you."
Sabrina said, "Master Nigel, it’s not what you think.”
Nigel said agitatedly, "Sabrina, even though others might not know why Holden came to South City, but I do! He loves you, am I right?"
Sabrina replied, "This has nothing to do with you!"
"You're right! This has nothing to do with me, but it has everything to do with you! Did he cause a big disruption to your life, and if he did, just tell me! TH freaking kill him! Does he think he's so ruthless?
